Volume One, Chapter 21: Shock! Harboring Sinister Thoughts About a Woman Ten Years His Senior
"Brother Xunan!"
"How dare that brat lay a hand on my son?!"
Amid the screams of Feng Lan and Su's mother, Su Xunan slowly regained consciousness. Staring blankly at the divorce application form sprawled in black and white before him, his mind went utterly blank.
Let me tell you, if I like you, that makes you a remarkable man. If I like you, that makes you a strong man. Matters of the heart are simple; as long as I like you, that is enough. I, Utuma, princess of the family, choose men who are exemplary—no one would doubt my judgment.
Moreover, if Su Qianxia participates in school competitions, he would have more time to spend with her.
Jiang Yu glanced at him warily, as if he were a ravenous wolf ready to devour his life.
She was inching closer to Zhu Mingsong when she saw him preparing to talk with Zhuang Jianrong. Zhuang Xiaolan, already consumed by jealousy, couldn’t help but interrupt and hurl insults at Zhuang Jianrong.
At that moment, Qing Yi had already unleashed her Phoenix Flame, aiming to pressure Honglian Jiuyan. Chu Muluo, perceiving Qing Yi’s intent, thought Honglian Jiuyan would suit Yiyang well, and so the Heartfire erupted in response.
"Shuxian, you’re truly virtuous. I’m nowhere near as wise as you. Well then, you just take your time teaching me." Yu Wanchuan felt his wife’s virtue deeply.
That window was stuck for some unknown reason. Judging by the situation, the window hadn’t been locked not due to the teacher’s carelessness, but because even the teacher couldn’t budge it. Guan Huabing’s strength was formidable, and with his help, the window slowly shifted open.
Compared to his teammates who applied for D-level promotion battles, Lin Yue boldly applied directly for a C-level promotion battle.
If Su Qianxia scored a zero this time and lost face so badly at Qingchengshan Academy, the Luo family would surely reject her.
He truly was going backward. Not only had he handed over the painstakingly cultivated herb garden to others, but he was also tasked with helping look after it.
Does this fellow really think I’m just out there courting trouble? Where on earth did he get such an idea? Even more frightening, it seemed the prodigies in her family thought the same.
After shaking hands with Pan Changlin, Yue He glanced at Xiao Tao, pondered for a moment, and said nothing further.
Feng Guang was so delighted he forgot himself completely. Hearing a single "good" from him, she excitedly grabbed his hand and dashed toward the guest rooms in the East Courtyard.
Gu Jingfeng, wounded and exhausted from days of sleepless travel, collapsed outside the gates of Nanxu Tower. He burned a high fever day and night, only waking after nearly three days.
Feng Guang raised her hand to stroke her chin, nodded, and strode purposefully into the resplendent palace. No one could see her; she entered with such arrogance and confidence.
Upon seeing Ting Shu swiftly and decisively handle the famed Yaxiang and Lixiang sisters in the battle zone, they recalled the fight and, after complex calculations, reached a conclusion: they likely wouldn’t last beyond three rounds before losing the bout.
Encountering Master Shengzong might have been a coincidence, but combined with Ting Shu’s own efforts and exceptional talent, it became inevitable. Talented individuals gaining recognition is only natural.
Early in the morning, when the nanny brought in the food, she noticed the curtains were still drawn. She assumed Ruan Ruohuan had stayed up late and had yet to wake. After setting down the food and calling several times with no response, the nanny grew concerned and went to check.
Shen Qinghong knew this cultivation would take the entire night. If Yun Kui really sent someone, he might not make it in time.
Yu Ling had to hurry with her cultivation as well. Over the billions of years since awakening, apart from entanglements with Jiang Xiao, Jiang Xiao also guided her cultivation. Originally versed in twenty-eight laws, Yu Ling had advanced to thirty-one laws. She hoped to reach forty-nine laws soon to break through the great Dao’s constraints.
